Please remember all the #ChildhoodCancer Warriors who died & never forget them. We must fight, share their stories & continue to advocate for them. This is my precious Ashley who died from #BrainCancer at only 13. Weโ€™d be so grateful for a follow to give our Children a voice. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

Already seeing companies skipping over #ChildhoodCancer Awareness Month (September) & choosing to go straight to "going Pink!โ€ As always, Children who are already deemed not profitable are also consistently being ignored by big brands. When will the lives of Children come first?

More Children die from cancer than any other disease, more than all other childhood illnesses combined. Yet, #ChildhoodCancer research is severely underfunded. We must advocate for our Children, or nothing will change.

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, Golden September! As part of the campaign, every year Childhood Cancer International (CCI) and SIOP want to paint social media gold with this frame, which, despite being a very simple gesture, has a huge impact on raising awareness.

When #BrainCancer takes away your ability to speak, you find different ways to communicate. Our Ashley gave us the ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ to let us know she was ok. Ashley stayed positive & so incredibly strong throughout her battle. Weโ€™d be so grateful for a follow to keep our Ashleyโ€™s story alive.
